Jaw broken in alleged assault at Queenstown McDonald's

Two Invercargill men are expected to appear on assault charges in the Queenstown District Court today after an incident at a Queenstown McDonald’s early on Saturday.

Sergeant Simon Matheson said a 20-year-old man was charged with injuring with intent and a 19-year-old charged with assault following the incident at the Camp St restaurant about 2.45am.

The pair were attempting to place an order using a touch screen when another male made a comment they took exception to, Sgt Matheson said.

After an altercation inside the restaurant, a security guard was allegedly assaulted outside the premises, sustaining a fractured jaw.
